Newcastle / Durham
Initially remote, with regular travel to our office and client sites across the North East, from Newcastle to North Yorkshire.
The Opportunity
Following several new client wins, we’re looking for a Talent Partner to join our growing team.
This is a delivery-focused role supporting a varied portfolio of permanent recruitment, executive search and embedded talent partnerships across manufacturing, engineering and industrial sectors.
You’ll work closely with the Founder, candidates, hiring managers and client stakeholders. Your focus will be on identifying and engaging exceptional talent, managing recruitment processes and ensuring every assignment is delivered to a high standard.
There are no cold-calling or new-business sales targets. However, you’ll be encouraged to build strong client relationships, develop your commercial understanding and spot opportunities where Select Talent Group could provide further support.
What You’ll Be Doing
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Source and engage candidates through LinkedIn, job boards, advertising, referrals and market research.
- Conduct candidate screening and competency-based interviews.
- Manage recruitment processes from initial brief through to offer and onboarding.
- Support retained search, senior appointments and confidential projects.
- Develop talent maps and provide market, competitor and salary intelligence.
- Write compelling job advertisements, outreach campaigns and candidate communications.
- Prepare high-quality candidate profiles, shortlists and client updates.
- Maintain regular communication with candidates and hiring managers.
- Coordinate interviews, feedback, offers, references and notice periods.
- Support embedded talent partnerships remotely and on client sites.
- Build a strong understanding of our clients, their cultures, industries and talent markets.
- Deliver an exceptional candidate and client experience throughout every process.
No two days will be the same.
One week, you could be sourcing for a Managing Director search, supporting multiple operational vacancies for an embedded client, mapping a specialist engineering market and helping prepare a salary benchmark for a manufacturing business.
